Killinaskully is an Irish comedy which details the bizarre goings-on in a Irish village called Killinaskully. The show's humour comes from the unusual characterisations of traditional, stereotypical rural Irish people. The show is chiefly written and performed by the comedian, Pat Shortt. In addition to producing and frequently writing for the series, Shortt plays no less than five characters: Dan "The Dan" Clancy, Willie Power, Goretti, Pa Connors and Mr. Cantwell.
